Automatically categorize and route incoming support tickets using semantic embeddings, ensuring customers reach the right specialist faster.

Workflow Steps

1

Zendesk or Intercom

Capture new support tickets

Set up a webhook or trigger in your support platform to capture new incoming tickets with their subject line, description, and any initial customer information.

2

Embedist

Generate ticket embeddings for classification

Send the ticket content to Embedist to generate vector embeddings. Create a classification system by comparing new ticket embeddings against pre-labeled examples (billing issues, technical problems, feature requests, etc.).

3

Zapier

Process classification results and route tickets

Use Zapier to receive the classification from Embedist and automatically assign tickets to the appropriate team or agent based on the semantic category. Set up conditional logic for confidence thresholds.

4

Slack

Notify relevant teams with context

Send notifications to the assigned team's Slack channel with the ticket summary, confidence score, and why it was routed to them. Include a direct link to the ticket for immediate action.
